Holy crudbutt, I haven’t posted anything since August 21st. My bad!
This is Converge’s new single and I’m not sure how I feel about it. I don’t actually have an opinion at all. Listen to it. Tell me what you think.

Do I speak Korean? No, I do not.
Do I need to speak Korean to like this video? No, I do not.
Do I have any idea of what the hell is going on in this video? No, I do not.
Do I love the living hell out of this thing? Yes, I do.
Because, I don’t know, I love this song so enjoy it. That’s it.
I recently fell back into Thrice in a big way. They were a band I listened to regularly around 2002, but they sort of dropped off my radar after that. The Illusion of Safety is still an amazing record, but as a thing that I am aware of they sort of disappeared. Maybe I was listening to too much grindcore and futurepop. Who knows. My friend Mia posted a Thrice video on her Facebook a month or so ago and I thought, “Damn, why haven’t I seen what this band is up to?” I went onto Spotify and saw they’d put out a record last year. Boom. Done.
And it is incredible. The record is lightyears away from The Illusion of Safety’s hardcore stylings. I recently commented on the Twitters that if you wanted to understand what the term “post hardcore” meant, then listen to Thrice’s newest record Major/Minor. They’ve taken their hardcore roots and let them mature into a sound that is not hardcore, but is informed by hardcore in a major way. It’s a grown up album for Thrice and perfectly suits them. They are not the young dudes who wrote The Illusion of Safety more than a decade ago and Major/Minor reflects that.
It’s a solid record and you should listen to it right now.
A new video from Disasteradio just a day after I was enjoying “Gravy Rainbow” again so much I decided to put the album on my phone for my commute? Kismet!
This track comes from 2010’s Charisma (like “Gravy Rainbow”). I quite like this song and am glad they decided to make this bizarro, mutant-filled music video for it. And, if nothing else, it’s tiding us over until the next Disasteradio release.
To the future!
Because you need 23 seconds of grind RIGHT NOW.
